The food was ok, the first course was dry bread with oil and vinegar and a bowl of olives. We had 5 small plates for 25 dollars each. Food tasted ok but the worse part was waiting half and hour for each little bite to arrive. The dessert was really bad dried out chocolate cake. We were there 2 1/2... More

My co-worker and I split the Chef's Choice Tapas and it was wonderful! We did the $25 per person...and it was way too much food! Hindsight, we could have gone with the $20 pp. Felt guilty for leaving food behind. I like the atmosphere and the individual attention you get. Definitely a dining experience. Take your time and enjoy some... More

I've been to Montys several times and never been disappointed. It's very small but that adds to the atmosphere. Because I live in Hespeler it's not uncommon to bump into people I know which again is part of the experience. I was there on Friday night and we ordered the $25 per person tapas deal. The food was absolutely spectacular.... More

I'm hooked to this place, wether it be tapas (which are by far my favorite) alongside of the Italian imported beer. I have also dined and thoroughly enjoyed my visit, service and most of all the food. Tapas have to be my #1 as you get a variety and nothing you get is less than perfectly tasty and well presented.... More

I can't believe I am lucky enough to have this wonderful restaurant within walking distance of my home! Every dining experience here has been consistently wonderful. My husband and I eat here relatively often and we mix it up - sometimes we go with an entree and sometimes we go with the tapas menu. On our most recent visit, we... More

We are hesitant for someone to choose our food, however was very happy with there selection (vegetarian and non-veg). This is a must try place. Our best food experience in Cambridge.

We have been several times and will keep going back for the best food and dining experience we have ever had. If you are going for Tapas, just tell Brent how much you want to spend and he'll take care of the rest. It's so exciting eating when you don't know what's going to come out of the kitchen next.

Tapas, salads, and more hearty entrees are served at this intimate setting. Service is a little slow, so don't be in a rush. The curry pork tenderloin was delicious. Above average beer and wine list.

Enjoyed a complete dining experience on a Friday night at Monty's. This small restaurant has an inmate and casual vibe. The menu is tapas style which was perfect for my friends who enjoyed a little bit of everything. Our server was great at suggesting some wine for us and some popular dishes. Some of my favourite food from the night... More

The positive reviews on TripAdvislor led us to try Monty's for a celebratory dinner about 2 weeks ago. We limited our selections to tapas, wine, dessert and cognac - and yet we did not feel limited at all. The menu options at Monty's are interesting (hallelujah), and the dishes highly flavourful. Special off-menu offerings were intersting, such as grilled alligator... More
